Health and nursing assistant

The training concept of the 3 learning locations

We are convinced that professionals who want to work in the healthcare sector must have cross-functional and cross-sector thinking, coupled with a professional attitude. The academy's didactic concept, learning at three learning locations, interprofessional teaching and learning arrangements and interaction with new technologies are the academy's future-oriented paths, together with its practice partners from the healthcare sector.

Learning Place THEORY – Professional skills and competencies build on knowledge

  • Lectures and case-based seminars convey the technical fundamentals and contexts of the respective profession. Interprofessional events broaden your own professional perspective and understanding of other professional groups in the healthcare sector.
  • Independent and individual learning is made possible, among other things, through the use of new media.

Learning location TRAINING & TRANSFER (LTT) – Practice and training in a protected space

  • In the Training & Transfer learning area, participants should train and consolidate skills and abilities in a setting that is as authentic as possible. Unlike in real working life, mistakes do not have any serious consequences, but rather play an important role in the learning process. Learning with and from one another also plays an important role in this area.
  • The teachers take on the role of coaches in this area. The individual prior knowledge and experience of the participants are actively integrated and the content is tailored accordingly. The learning process is supported and accompanied by intensive reflection on learning progress.

Learning Place PRAXIS – Learning under Real Conditions

  • Professional practice completes the training process with specific situations and tasks. Depending on the level of training, there are targeted practical phases in which the participants can test and further develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes they have learned.
  • The training participants are expertly guided and accompanied by staff in the practice facilities and teachers at the academy.
  • Collected experiences and events serve as a starting point for the further professional learning process in the theory and LTT learning areas and are taken up in the courses and appropriately taken into account.
  • The practical learning takes place in the respective training centers of the training participants, including 840 hours in inpatient care and 160 hours in outpatient care.
  • Vocational qualification or equivalent school education or completed vocational training
  • Training contract with a training provider
  • Proof of health suitability
  • Language level (B2)

To be submitted after a successful interview:

  • Proof of required vaccinations
  • Certificate of good conduct

The state-recognized training and examination takes place in accordance with the law on the profession of nursing assistant in the state of Berlin in the currently valid version.

The applicant management for this training takes place directly at one of the member companies/cooperation partners of the Academy of Health ( overview of training institutions ).
